2. 多模态神经细胞干预和记录平台
该平台配备双光子免疫荧光显微镜、多通道膜片钳记录等系统。多通道在体记录技术(Multiple Channel in vivo Recording Technique)可以在清醒且自由活动的动物脑内记录数百乃至上千个神经细胞的放电活动。该技术能够进行中枢神经系统多部位、多神经元同步信号记录,并配合行为检测研究的能力,可用于中枢神经群放电、脑电与诱发电位,以及感觉、悦动、学习记忆等多种中枢功能机制研究。光遗传学(Optogenetics)和化学遗传学(Chemogenetics)是将光学/化学技术与遗传学手段结合,来实现控制神经细胞行为的方法,它克服了传统电刺激和药物手段激活/抑制细胞时空间和时间分辨率低的缺点。
Multimodal neural cell intervention and recording platform
The platform is equipped with a two-photon immunofluorescence microscope, multi-channel patch-clamp recording and other systems. The Multiple Channel in vivo Recording Technique can record the discharge activity of hundreds or even thousands of nerve cells in the brains of awake and freely moving animals. This technology can record synchronous signals from multiple parts of the central nervous system and multiple neurons, and can be used for central nervous system discharge, brain electricity and evoked potentials, and various central functions such as sensation, pleasure, learning and memory. Optogenetics and chemogenetics are methods that combine optical/chemical technology and genetics to control the behaviour of nerve cells. It overcomes the traditional electrical stimulation and drug methods to activate/inhibit the spatial and temporal and Disadvantages of low time resolution.
